Spring is on it's way and with it comes an array of pastel nail polishes. You'd think we'd be bored of them by now, coming back year after year but personally I can't get enough and just love how they look.
One of the more exciting pastel launches comes from Ciaté with their Dolls House collection. Five perfectly pastel mini polishes housed in a cute paper dolls house that even has windows! The shades included are Poppet, Dolls House, Paper Doll, Sweet Pea and Baby Doll and my favourites are Sweet Pea (a pastel mint) and Poppet (a gentle lilac). They are all part of Ciaté's porcelain effect line so they dry super quick with a matte, chalky texture. Worn with a top coat though, they can also look glossy and fresh! I found I needed 2 to 3 coats to get an opaque finish but I was happy with how smooth they applied.
Alongside the incredibly cute Dolls House collection, Ciaté have also launched a range of scented nail polish removers. If, like me, your boyfriend complains of the smell when you do your nails these are perfect. They come in four scents: white, dark, mint and orange chocolate and they really do smell like their descriptions! Although they are made with a great non-drying formula and added Vitamin E and B5 to condition, I found they weren't as effective as my usual Bourjois 1 second nail polish remover. I would recommend using these though when you're not in a rush and want to indulge in a delicious, pampering manicure. The glass bottles look beautiful and would make a really nice present for a nail obsessed girl like myself!
The Dolls House is only £18, which for 5 gorgeous shades, I think is really affordable and the nail polish removers are £10 each. Will either of these launches be added to your wish list?
